Volkswagen Jetta Oil In Air Filter

Q. Hi, I have a 1995 Volkswagen Jetta with 92,000 miles a manual transmission. I have had the car a little while now and when I got it, I had a Check Engine Light on and it came and went. I recently went to replace my air filter and noticed that I had oil in my intake. I replaced my PCV valve hoping it would help. It did for a while but it's doing it again. It's almost like the oil has to build up in the intake to cause trouble. Can you help me out?

Thanks,
Kyle

A. There was a TSB on this problem, number: 99-04. The repair involves modifying the PCV and air intake system. So this is one you should let the dealer take care of.
